Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Whoever says (upon leaving his house): 'Bismillah, tawakkaltu 'alallah, wa la hawla wa la quwwata illa billah ,' it will be said to him: 'You are guided, defended and protected.' The devil will go far away from him". . Abu Dawud reported it with this addition: "One devil will say to another: 'How can you deal with a man who has been guided, defended and protected?".
